alimento de los dioses

by H. G. Wells

En "Alimento de los Dioses", H.G. Wells explora las consecuencias impredecibles de la ciencia y la ambición humana. Dos científicos británicos descubren un suero que induce un crecimiento desmedido en los seres vivos. Lo que comienza como una promesa de progreso se convierte en una pesadilla cuando las criaturas modificadas, desde ratas hasta niños, alcanzan tamaños monstruosos. La novela satiriza la arrogancia científica, la codicia y la irresponsabilidad, mientras explora los desafíos que enfrenta la sociedad frente a un cambio radical e inesperado.
